Q: What kind of bike rack can I use on my Ford Edge?
I just bought a new 2010 Ford Edge, but it does not have a hitch on it for a bike rack. I can’t reach to put my bike on the roof. Is there a rack out there that would work?
A: You could have a hitch installed on your car. Every time I buy a new car I insist that the dealer include a hitch once we have agreed on the price. Hitch racks are the easiest to install and remove, and they don’t touch any painted surface of the car which can cause scratches. There are many hitch rack designs, I prefer the type that support the bikes from under the wheels. I can install my rack and 2 bikes on the car in less than 5 minutes
Q: How do I activate SIRIUS on my Sync enabled Ford Edge?
I have a 2010 Ford Edge with SYNC and the media system with the screen. There is no satellite radio button, but in the settings there is a SIRIUS Radio ESN, and there is a factory installed SIRIUS antenna on the roof. In the “media” section of SYNC, there is the usual jukebox CD and line in, but no satellite radio option – how do I get it to show so I can use it?
Thanks!

Q: 2010 Ford Edge SEL Winter Tires Question?
We have a new Ford Edge SEL, and we are gonna put 4 winter tires.
The original equipment tires are P245/60R18 104H, hence 18″ tires.
Our Ford dealer mentioned that we can put 17″ tires on rims, but the tire-pressure
monitor that usually monitors the tire pressure won’t work in the winter months with the 17″ tires on rims, and that Ford doesn’t make rims 18″.
My question is, is it safe, to use the mags that are there now, and just put the 18″
winter tires on it? Will putting/using the 18″ winter tires on the 18″ mags that I use for BOTH summer and winter be bad for those mags? Will they ruin faster? I am so confused!
Please help!
A: That’s a good question. Yeah, the road salt and snow will affect the finish on the wheels. The best thing to do is polish and wax them now, then do your best to keep them clean during the winter.
This is the downside to all the fancy technology and styling, there are no easy solutions when you want to do something simple like swap wheels for the winter.
The Edge SE comes with 17″ wheels. Maybe keep an eye out on e-bay and Craigslist to see if someone wants to sell their old Edge wheels. Until then, do the best you can to keep your car clean.

A: They’re alloy not mag wheels. Nowadays “mag wheels” are magnesium not the common reference to really small wheels people used to put on big cars.
You can put winter tires on 18’s without a problem with the wheels, however…it becomes a cost issue because mounting those tires back and forth will cost at least 80 probably more each time. You should buy a second set of wheels for winter tires if you don’t run all season radials on your car. That way you can just swap the wheels out when winter is over. That’s what I used to do when I lived in the mid-atlantic…no snow now
